[Inmate #0005 is unable to take your call. Please leave a message after the beep.]

[ Eiji looked to the ground briefly, feeling somewhat uncomfortable. He unwrapped one of the popsicles and hand held it out. ]

I won, by the way.

[After sucking on one for a bit, his voice is a bit stronger. Popsicles help the candy go down easier.] Congratulations. [And it's actually rather sincere.]

Eh? Do you really mean that?

[Just a glare from over the popsicle. The 'of course, idiot' is all over his face.]

Thanks, then. [ It was kind of funny how hard it was for Ankh to admit he'd said something nice. ]

Don't go giving away your winnings. They're for us to use. [MOVING AWAY FROM THAT SUBECT]

Oh, um, speaking of that...

[ He pulled a pouch from his pocket and held it out to Ankh. ]

Here. You used one already but there's two more in here for when you need them.

[He took them, glaring at him. But he stuffed them under his pillow for now.] I'm going to take the rest of those for safe keeping.

Under your pillow isn't exactly the safest spot... isn't that where people always look first?

I'm laying on it. No one's getting it.

What about when you're not laying on it?

Then I'll put it somewhere else! You know, when I can actually stand up without being in a bunch of pain. [And he flinches. Getting angry at him hurts more than was fair.]

Okay, okay! Sorry.

[ He was quiet for a moment. ]

Hina-chan wanted me to tell you she's rooting for you to get better.

[He doesn't look like he knows what to say to that. Still working on that popsicle though.]

She really misses you, you know...

[ Things were actually kind of awkward when they weren't fighting. ]

Do you expect me to see her like this?! [Sure he was a little vain, but there's a bad hair day and then there's nightmare-inducing.]

Well, no.

[ Frown. ]

What if you wore a mask? We could always blindfold her too. I think she'd just be happy to hear your voice.

[He looks to one side like he's considering it.] That doesn't do much for the rest of me. [He's been warned about stairs bro.]

There has to be something we can do. You need to see her as much as she needs to see you, right?

[He did miss seeing her. Funny how he'd gone so long without seeing her and now that they were in prison together, going a couple days without seeing her sucked a lot. He rolled over away from Eiji.] It doesn't matter.

I know that isn't true.

How I feel about it doesn't matter. This is how it needs to be.

If you can't go to her, I'll bring her to you. I know how to be careful.

She's not coming down here.

Why not? You could still cover your face if you want.
